Frankenstein – A Modern Myth
Wednesday, 23.10, Channel 4

Twenty years on from Ghostwatch (which of course isn’t being repeated), Channel Four take up the witching hour to profile one of horror’s most iconic characters – and their monster, as well, because as every child knows it’s the name of the scientist, like Doctor Who is the name of the series. Everyone from Boris Karloff to Benedict Cumberbatch is featured in this, though perhaps not Frankie Stein from Monster Fun.

Bullseye
Sunday, 12.00, Challenge

An hour of post-watershed Bullseye and not even the “‘e’s pissin’ deaf!” clip? What is the point! We didn’t think much of the Bullseye documentary, actually, the usual fare of badly cropped clips, talking heads offering nothing and endless repetition, and though you can see it again tonight, you’ll probably get more entertainment from this, bloody hell, eight hour marathon of the show.
